A new communication method for untethered intelligent microrobots
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The magnetic environment provided by a clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanner can be exploited for implementing a method of communication with intelligent microrobots. For untethered sensory microrobots having some level of intelligence and operating inside the body, the transmission power necessary to communicate information to an external computer via known methods is insufficient. In this paper, a technique is described where such loss of transmission power due to the scaling of these microrobots can be compensated by the MRI scanner acting as a more sensitive receiver. We propose a binary communication scheme in the form of a directional alteration in the current circulating in a miniature coil that could be embedded in the microrobot. The direction of the current could be regulated from a predetermined sensory threshold input implemented on the microrobot. The direction of the current provides information about the level of sensory input from a microrobot and it is determined using MR phase encoding images. The preliminary results which are presented in this paper confirmed the possibility of using this communication method in future microrobots.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
